Hi. I had stage 2 breast cancer two years ago and had a lumpectomy. I have just been called back following my two year mammogram, due to calcifications. Just wondering if anyone else has had this please?

  • No have not but get mammogram this month and always nervous.  Was your cancer Estrogen positive and did you take tamoxifen or an aromatase inhibitor?  I guess you will have ultrasound now and biopsy too.  I pray all is ok and not cancer.  Hugs to you.

    1. Thank you for replying so quickly and for your kind wishes. I have been taking Anastrozole. I think they are going to do another mammogram and biopsy. I hope your mammogram is clear. My best wishes to you. 
  • I also take Anastrazole.  Yes they will do a diagnostic mammogram now.  Calcifications are hard to see on dense breasts too and I don’t know if you have that too as about 40-50% of women do.  
    I will be thinking of you and praying for a good report.
